This paper discusses the threat of radiological terrorism. The author discusses the chances of an attack on Western countries by terrorists using a dirty bomb and possible countermeasures to the threat. The paper concludes that the better the population and authorities are prepared, the lower the impact of such an attack will be, thus helping to ensure that the terrorists do not achieve their aim to intimidate the population and create lasting economic damage.
